About this file
This security bulletin from the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense advises against photocopying military and common access cards due to legal and security concerns. It notes that duplicating government identification violates federal law and enables criminal elements to obtain logistical materials for acts against the military. While commercial establishments can request such identification, personnel should provide an alternative form of photo ID like a driver's license if copying is insisted upon. Medical providers are excepted for insurance purposes, as are other government agencies conducting official business.
The related federal contract opportunity is a request for proposal from the General Services Administration to provide the Military OneSource program. The solicitation seeks proposals for assisting service members, families, survivors and veterans with information, resources, and support on topics including military life, deployment, reintegration, relationships, emotional well-being and other quality of life issues. Responses are due by the date specified in the solicitation, and the award will be made thereafter. Pricing, terms, and conditions will be negotiated with the apparent successful offeror.

Photocopying of Military Identification Cards
Recent incidents regarding the photocopying of military identification cards and common access cards (CAC), by commercial establishments to verify military affiliation or provide government rates for service, have been reported.
Personnel are reminded that the photocopying of US Government Identification is a violation of Title 18, US Code Part I, Chapter 33, Section 701 and punishable by both fine and/or imprisonment.
Many military members, family members and DoD employees are unaware of this law. Please pass to the lowest level and include in training for force protection, information security and OPSEC.
FPO COMMENTS: Criminal elements and terrorist organizations place U.S. government identifications as a high value logistical element when planning acts against the U.S. military.
Although commercial establishments are not prohibited from asking for military/government identification, many government personnel and commercial establishments are unaware of the prohibition on duplication of government identification. Unfortunately, there are no safeguards in place to ensure a government identification card won’t be counterfeited or “cloned” based on a photocopy by a commercial establishment.
It is recommended that military/DoD personnel provide a state drivers license or other form of photo identification to be photocopied if an establishment insists on a photocopy of the traveler’s identification.
*NOTE: This does not apply to medical establishments (i.e. doctor’s office, hospitals, etc…) who are allowed take a copy for the purpose of filing insurance claims; and other government agencies in the performance of official government business.
